Geocache Description:

A joint venture with PUBPOOL on a place we visit regular. A lovely Scottish border town upon searching for places we came accross this hidden away so decided to bring youse here aswell

Award winner, Wilton Lodge Park is one of the most picturesque town parks in Scotland with its tree lined walks, river, waterfall, formal gardens, museum, glass house and walled gardens. In Spring there are extensive areas of daffodils, narcissi and flowering trees, and in Autumn the gold and russets of the trees are a must. Take a walk through the Violet Woods, joining the park at the western side which continues onto the riverside walks (distance approx. 2000m). Bowling, putting, crazy golf, 6 blaes tennis courts and cafe available.

Unveiled on 1st October 2005 within the park, is a statue commemorating the life of Steve Hislop (Hizzy), the local motorcycling champion who rose to world fame but had his life tragically cut short in 2003. Steve Hislop claimed the British Superbike title in 1995 and 2002, also won 11 races at the Isle of Man TT.
